Chelsea are nine points clear at the top of the table, and Antonio Conte is well on course to deliver the Premier League title in his first season in charge of the club.

Mourinho, who won the league title three times in two spells with the Blues, is facing a battle to help Manchester United finish in the top four.

And the Portuguese tactician appears to be jealous of all the adulation Conte has been receiving.

“My team is playing very well but for many, many years in my career, especially in this country, when my teams were ruthless and phenomenal defensively, and very good in the counter attack, I listen week after week that it was not enough in spite of winning the title three times,” Mourinho said.
